Hello all Beer lovers, it has been quite long the last time I posted in this community. I've been busy and exhausted from all the daily happenings in life. On a Friday evening, I met up with some old friends. It's been 10 years since we last together. A whole decade had passed, full of changes, and these moments we should have shared but didn’t. Life got busy. Even do we are only staying in the same country and our location distance is about 45 minutes away, we started families. Somewhere along the way, we keep in touch online. But somehow, we decided to meet up, and wanting to catch up was all it took to bring us back.

We called the waiter and ordered our drinks. I chose Tiger Beer, normally when it comes to draft beer, I always go for Tiger Beer and also Emma, this Tiger Beer has a hint of flavors, gutsy grape, cheeky plum, melon, and peach, and Jill ordered black beer. then we also get some food. When the drinks finally arrived and were presented in chilled glasses, we could hide our excitement. And we had our very first sip was everything we had hoped for: cold, satisfying, and the perfect start to what promised to be a relaxing evening. There’s something about good drinks and even better company that makes a simple evening feel special.
We talked about everything: jobs, families, hard times, and happy ones. We always chat online, but meeting in person felt different. We both said we missed the friendship, and saying it out loud felt good. Sitting there, we realized how much we still had in common. We had both changed, of course, but the heart of our friendship was still there. We still understood each other in a way that only old friends can. We still laughed at the same dumb jokes. We still cared. We also went to the bar to watch a live band and have a lot of fun. We dance and sing, we get tipsy so much on beer, we have two towers or tiger draft, just three of us. This moment makes me realise that real friendship doesn’t just fade away. It might be quiet for a while, but it doesn’t disappear. Sometimes it takes a message, a quick meetup, or a shared moment to bring it back.
When we said goodbye, we didn’t make any big promises or talk about forever. But we did say we wouldn’t let another ten years pass. And honestly, that was enough, just knowing the connection was still there. When we start to get busy with our own life, so much of things take out our time, we forget some people in our life, and we realise time passes by so fast, and from now on I will try to catch up with some old friends with drinks. While going back home by the Grab car, they were still talking to me on the phone to make sure I would be home safely. when I arrived home, my husband was still awake, waiting for me. He realised my friends were still on the phone, he just smiled and said, You all just met and until now still on the phone. As I forgot that I didn’t say bye to them, I just laughed and told him they arrived home before me, they make sure I will reach home hahaha. And my husband said nice friends, better go out more often with them so you can relax sometimes, anyway my husband keeps on asking me to hang out with friends like dinner or drinks, but I lazy to go out. But
Now my blood is back in action heheheeh.
